Opposition to the WOPR: Protect Our Ancient Forests

1/7/2008 18:17:18

Western Oregon Plan Revisions Bureau of Land Management

To whom it may concern:

I am writing in opposition to the BLM's attempt to put our
nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the
proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

Please do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forest
heritage to be our legacy, and rewrite the plan to protect our
ancient forests, clean water, and the wildlife that call these
areas home.

only seen intact in our area would be decimated by run off silt
and debris from the loss of stabilization of the old growth
trees. Wetland are one of the earth strongest resources in
dealing with pollution, and would be second catastrophic loss
caused by this proposed plan. Countless oyster farms would also
be a loss.

proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

Please do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forest
heritage to be our legacy, and rewrite the plan to protect our
ancient forests, clean water, and the wildlife that call these
areas home.

Please accept the following comments on the BLM's Draft Environmental
Impact Statement for the Revision of the Resource Management Plans for
Western Oregon.

Congress and the Administration must ensure that when the Plan is
finalized that the BLM receives adequate funding so that it can be fully
implemented.

When implemented, the Plan should live up to the full commitment that was
made to local counties.

Access should be maintained through BLM administered lands for private
land access, fire suppression, as well as recreational uses, such as
hunting, fishing, boating and sightseeing.

In summary, the economic viability of our rural communities and the
overall health of our federal forests are of vital importance to me. I
ask that you give these comments full consideration as you prepare the
final Environmental Impact Statement and select the final management plans
for the Western Oregon BLM Districts.

Sincerely,

Mark Olsen

To whom it may concern:

I am writing in opposition to the BLM's attempt to put our
nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the
proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

Please do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forest
heritage to be our legacy, and rewrite the plan to protect our
ancient forests, clean water, and the wildlife that call these

I oppose BLM's plan to put our nation's beloved forests at-risk
through the proposed Western Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This
misguided and unacceptable plan would undermine the protections
of the Northwest Forest Plan (NWFP) and endanger the magnificent
forests, diversity of life, and clean salmon-rich waters of the

You persist in giving away the public forest, often with
misleading, phony titles. This conspiracy is perpetated by an
unsustainable warlike attack rather than the long term
sustainable practices practiced in Europe and other enlightened
areas.

Without the NWFP, we will again see logging of ancient forests
and the degradation of miles of rivers on the Pacific coast.
This proposal would take us backwards to the days of excessive
old growth clear-cutting, destructive road building, and local
controversy, and you fail to provide real stewardship of these
resources. I urge you to reject this and every attempt to
undermine science-based protections for our nation's natural

WOPR comment

Dear Western Oregon BLM,

I am writing to express my concern over the possible elimination of
old-growth and streamside reserves on western Oregon BLM lands.
These forests provide habitat for many wildlife species, clean
drinking water to rural communities, recreation for outdoor
enthusiasts, and a legacy for future generations.

With so few old-growth forests remaining, it is critical that we
protect them for future generations to enjoy. Young, even-age tree
plantations are a sustainable place for generating wood products.

The Cascadia Wildlands Project is dedicated to defending the forests,
waters, and wildlife of the Pacific Northwest. Visit www.cascwild.org
to learn more about wildlands issues and our leadership in the
conservation movement. Become a member today at
http://www.cascwild.org/donate.html. Your support makes a difference!

Please accept the following comments on the BLM's Draft Environmental
Impact Statement for the Revision of the Resource Management Plans for
Western Oregon.

None of the three alternatives presented in the DEIS meet the requirements
of the O&C Act because they do not manage the land for the dominant use of
timber production. Reserving the majority (52%) of the suitable
timberlands for the purpose of a listed species is contrary to the O&C Act.

Because of the unique nature of the O&C Lands, by law these lands are not
available to be part of a reserve system designed to recover a listed
species. The BLM should consider active management for the protection of
listed and sensitive species and their habitat before adopting passive,
reserve strategies. The alternative selected by the BLM, however, should
be one that will not jeopardize the continued existence of listed species
within the species entire habitat range.

The BLM must develop and analyzes at least one alternative that maximizes
the amount of land in timber production and receipts to local county
governments, and meets its no jeopardy obligation.

Congress and the Administration must ensure that when the Plan is
finalized that the BLM receives adequate funding so that it can be fully
implemented.

When implemented, the Plan should live up to the full commitment that was
made to local counties.

Timber sale revenues must generate at least an amount equal to the funding
that was provided to local counties through the Secure Rural Schools and
Community Self-Determination Act on a yearly basis.

All BLM administered land should be managed to minimize the threat of
catastrophic wildfire on these lands and surrounding state and private
lands.

Access should be maintained through BLM administered lands for private
land access, fire suppression, as well as recreational uses, such as
hunting, fishing, boating and sightseeing.

In summary, the economic viability of our rural communities and the
overall health of our federal forests are of vital importance to me. I
ask that you give these comments full consideration as you prepare the
final Environmental Impact Statement and select the final management plans
for the Western Oregon BLM Districts.

Sincerely,

Mark Mowery

us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,

reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the

Dear Western Oregon BLM,

I am writing to express my concern over the possible elimination of
old-growth and streamside reserves on western Oregon BLM lands.
These forests provide habitat for many wildlife species, clean
drinking water to rural communities, recreation for outdoor
enthusiasts, and a legacy for future generations.

With so few old-growth forests remaining, it is critical that we
protect them for future generations to enjoy. Young, even-age tree
plantations are a sustainable place for generating wood products.

Dear Western Oregon BLM,

My wife and I are writing to express our concern over the possible
elimination of old-growth and streamside reserves on western Oregon
BLM lands. These forests provide habitat for many wildlife animals
(including several endangered/threatened species), clean drinking
water to rural communities, recreation for outdoor enthusiasts, and a
legacy for future generations.

protect them for future generations to enjoy. Young, even-aged tree

Please accept the following comments on the BLM's Draft Environmental
Impact Statement for the Revision of the Resource Management Plans for
Western Oregon.

Access should be maintained through BLM administered lands for private
land access, fire suppression, as well as recreational uses, such as
hunting, fishing, boating and sightseeing.

All BLM administered land should be managed to minimize the threat of
catastrophic wildfire on these lands and surrounding state and private
lands.

Timber sale revenues must generate at least an amount equal to the funding
that was provided to local counties through the Secure Rural Schools and
Community Self-Determination Act on a yearly basis.

When implemented, the Plan should live up to the full commitment that was
made to local counties.

Congress and the Administration must ensure that when the Plan is
finalized that the BLM receives adequate funding so that it can be fully
implemented.

The BLM must develop and analyzes at least one alternative that maximizes
the amount of land in timber production and receipts to local county
governments, and meets its no jeopardy obligation.

Because of the unique nature of the O&C Lands, by law these lands are not
available to be part of a reserve system designed to recover a listed
species. The BLM should consider active management for the protection of
listed and sensitive species and their habitat before adopting passive,
reserve strategies. The alternative selected by the BLM, however, should
be one that will not jeopardize the continued existence of listed species
within the species entire habitat range.

None of the three alternatives presented in the DEIS meet the requirements
of the O&C Act because they do not manage the land for the dominant use of
timber production. Reserving the majority (52%) of the suitable
timberlands for the purpose of a listed species is contrary to the O&C Act.

In summary, the economic viability of our rural communities and the
overall health of our federal forests are of vital importance to me. I
ask that you give these comments full consideration as you prepare the
final Environmental Impact Statement and select the final management plans
for the Western Oregon BLM Districts.

Sincerely,

Steve Schwend

To whom it may concern:

I am writing in opposition to the BLM's attempt to put our
nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the
proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

Please do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forest
heritage to be our legacy, and rewrite the plan to protect our
ancient forests, clean water, and the wildlife that call these

Dear Western Oregon BLM,

I am concerned over the possible elimination of old-growth and
streamside reserves on western Oregon BLM lands. These forests
provide habitat for many wildlife species, clean drinking water to
rural communities, recreation for outdoor enthusiasts, and a legacy
for future generations.

With so few old-growth forests remaining, it is critical that we
protect them for future generations to enjoy. Young, even-age tree
plantations are a sustainable place for generating wood products.

I am working as a volunteer to promote the National Wildlife
Federation and Washington Dept of Fish and Wildlife backyard wildlife
habitat programs---efforts to enhance and increase wildlife habitat.
Loss of habitat is the biggest threat to wildlife. Increasing
backyard habitat only to have habitat lost on a much larger scale is
discouraging.

The Cascadia Wildlands Project is dedicated to defending the forests,
waters, and wildlife of the Pacific Northwest. Visit www.cascwild.org

PROTECTING OUR FORESTS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO ME BECAUSE THERE
ISN'T THAT MUCH LEFT OF OLD GROWTH,CLEAR-CUTTING IS UGLY,WE NEED
THE FORESTS FOR CONSERVING WATER AND THE SALMON STREAMS,THEY
PROTECT US FROM GLOBAL WARMING, IT WOULD ENDANGER THE WILDLIFE
AND WE'D LIKE TO LEAVE OUR CHILDREN SOME NATURAL BEAUTY OF
NATURE TO ENJOY.PLEASE DON'T DESTROY THIS TREASURE. THANK YOU.

I am very concerned with the direction the Bush Administration is headed in with the management of nearly 2.6 million acres of federal forests under the Western Oregon Plan Revisions. The changes that the BLM is contemplating will unravel the protections of the landmark Northwest Forest Plan, and may lead to water pollution, degraded habitat, and increased conflict and controversy.

Your current proposal is unacceptable. The agency proposes to increase old-growth logging on public lands in western Oregon by 700%, build 1,000 miles of new logging road in the next decade and clearcut at a 9-1 ratio to thinning. This is a myopic and backwards proposal that depletes our natural resource base for future generations by weakening protections for forests, creeks and salmon. Shockingly, the proposal ignores the role that these forests play in regulating the climate.

Most Americans want federal land managers to embrace thinning second growth forests, safeguard communities from wildfire and protect what remains of our nation's ancient forests. By focusing on previously logged public forestlands - many of which are now overgrown and in need of thinning - they are providing wood to local mills while actually improving conditions for fish and wildlife and keeping saws out of precious old-growth forests.

In contrast, the WOPR proposes to inflame the controversy by increasing old-growth clear-cutting for a short-term economic fix. The WOPR puts water quality at-risk and would destroy some of Oregon's most special places. We should protect our remaining mature and old-growth forests on public land, not clear-cut these natural treasures as the WOPR proposes to do.

It is disappointing that at a time when public consensus for old-growth protection and second-growth thinning has never been stronger, the BLM is proposing to clear-cut forests older than our nation and turn complex ecosystems into flammable tree farms.

Opposition to the WOPR: Protect Our Ancient Forests

Western Oregon Plan Revisions Bureau of Land Management

To whom it may concern:

I am writing in opposition to the BLM's attempt to put our
nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the
proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

Please do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forest

ancient forests, clean water, and the wildlife that call these
areas home.

Please do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forest

Please accept the following comments on the BLM's Draft Environmental
Impact Statement for the Revision of the Resource Management Plans for
Western Oregon.

None of the three alternatives presented in the DEIS meet the requirements
of the O&C Act because they do not manage the land for the dominant use of
timber production. Reserving the majority (52%) of the suitable
timberlands for the purpose of a listed species is contrary to the O&C Act.

Because of the unique nature of the O&C Lands, by law these lands are not
available to be part of a reserve system designed to recover a listed
species. The BLM should consider active management for the protection of
listed and sensitive species and their habitat before adopting passive,
reserve strategies. The alternative selected by the BLM, however, should
be one that will not jeopardize the continued existence of listed species
within the species entire habitat range.

The BLM must develop and analyzes at least one alternative that maximizes
the amount of land in timber production and receipts to local county
governments, and meets its no jeopardy obligation.

Congress and the Administration must ensure that when the Plan is
finalized that the BLM receives adequate funding so that it can be fully
implemented.

Congress and the Administration must ensure that when the Plan is
finalized that the BLM receives adequate funding so that it can be fully
implemented.

When implemented, the Plan should live up to the full commitment that was
made to local counties.

Timber sale revenues must generate at least an amount equal to the funding
that was provided to local counties through the Secure Rural Schools and
Community Self-Determination Act on a yearly basis.

All BLM administered land should be managed to minimize the threat of
catastrophic wildfire on these lands and surrounding state and private
lands.

Access should be maintained through BLM administered lands for private
land access, fire suppression, as well as recreational uses, such as
hunting, fishing, boating and sightseeing.

In summary, the economic viability of our rural communities and the
overall health of our federal forests are of vital importance to me. I
ask that you give these comments full consideration as you prepare the
final Environmental Impact Statement and select the final management plans
for the Western Oregon BLM Districts.

Opposition to the WOPR: Protect Our Ancient Forests

Western Oregon Plan Revisions Bureau of Land Management

To whom it may concern:

I am writing in opposition to the BLM's attempt to put our
nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the
proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

Please do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forest
heritage to be our legacy, and rewrite the plan to protect our
ancient forests, clean water, and the wildlife that call these
areas home.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. When I've flown between Oakland,
CA and Portland, OR since 1995, I've been appalled by how much
land in the Oregon forests is scarred by numerous huge open
spaces where acre upon acre of trees have been stripped away. I
am also concerned that the proposal fails to appreciate how
important these intact forests are in helping to slow global
warming.

Our country is bountiful beyond any other, but we must do our
utmost NOW to keep our forest and land treasures intact. Please
do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forest heritage
to be our legacy, and rewrite the plan to protect our ancient
forests, clean water, and the wildlife that call these areas
home. Thank you.

Please don't implement the proposed Western Oregon Plan
Revisions (WOPR). This unacceptable plan would unravel the
protections of the Northwest Forest Plan (NWFP) at a time when
there are fewer and fewer old growth forests, where the erosion
issues with clear cutting are well-known, and where wild life
habitat is at premium.

Any jobs created by this initiative are short term and after we
have destroyed a resource belonging to all of us, the
unemployment problem in western Oregon will reappear. We destroy
our children's heritage by acting greedily and wringing every
cent we can for private companies by selling off our public
treasures.

I urge you to reject this and every attempt to undermine
science-based protections for our nation's natural resources.

I grew up in a part of Idaho which at that time depended on
logging. Now all the mills are closed and the jobs have
vanished. We need to stop this destructive pattern and use what
resources we have in a sustainable way, which would preclude
clear-cutting. We need to take into account the role that trees
play in combatting global warming, avoiding erosion,
guaranteeing clean rivers and streams, and maintaining viable
habitat for fish and wildlive. We need to recognize that the
BLM's forests belong to all Americans and not to logging
companies.

This yet another of the legion of highly corrupt and despicable

It is your absolute duty to the American people to protect OUR

reward of wealthy and ultragreedy corporations.

Always remember that your clear duty is to the American people
and NOT to the now highly discredited Bush administration. It is
the American taxpayer who pays for your income and NOT the Bush

We have in the course of a hundred years or so eliminated the
vast majority of old growth forests that evolved over thousands
of years. The incremental value of the timber to be gained in
the remaining forests pales in comparison to their intrinsic
value. At some point self respect should outweigh greed; I feel
that point was reached some time ago.

Every day I work with citizens committed to salmon recovery and
education on watershed health. So many of us are sport fishers
bringing economic wealth to small rural communities because of
the cold water fisheries that are dependent on in tact
watersheds for survival. The Clinton Forest plan was a bare
bones compromise that provides minimum protection to the
multiple values forests provide especially clean cold water,
flow attenuation, winter cover for deer and elk. Clear cutting
is a travesty of the past that does not benefit the citizens who
own these lands.

To whom it may concern:

I am writing in opposition to the BLM's attempt to put our
nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the
proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

1/7/2008 18:53:37

Western Oregon Plan Revisions Bureau of Land Management

To whom it may concern:

I am writing to express my strong response in regard to
potential plans to undo protections for forests in Oregon. The
damage that has already occured in the Great Northwest due to
irresponsible logging practices is already irreverible and has
contributed in climate changes, flood devastation, and
endangered entire species and ecosystems. The proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR)is misguided and an unacceptable
plan that would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest
Plan (NWFP). Many steps have been taken to slowly build back
healthy waterways and re-build salmon runs.

Without the NWFP, the WOPR would unravel the expensive and
necessary steps that have been taken to recover from past
mistakes. It is unthinkable that our governmental policies could
concieve of such a short sighted solution and threaten the small
percent of our remaining forests in the NW. I urge you to reject
this and every attempt to undermine science-based protections
for our nation's natural resources.

Please help stop this destructive plan (WOPR) and protect our
forest heritage. We are all dependent on healthy inter-connected
ecosystems that sustain all of life. We all have a
responsibility to be stewards of our Great Northwest land.

nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the
proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

The western slope of the Coastal range

Western Oregon Plan Revisions Bureau of Land Management

To whom it may concern:

I am a native to this land. I appreciate our unique
bio-diversity of land uses. What I DO NOT appreciate is the plan
on the table to open up land that has been JUST FINE without
"selling" it off for profit in the short term. The impact of
roads and clear cutting on the western slopes of the coast range
have shown themselves, in the past, as NOT the way to handle
this region. Clear cutting and more roads will enhance the
slides we are STILL dealing with when this practice was in vogue
before. Apparently, we DO NOT learn from our mistakes!!??!!

Not to mention the impact on the wildlife and the salmon runs
that would be caught in the shuffle. Who is watching out for the
wildlife as we continue to destroy more and more terrain in
hopes of profits!????

Opposition to the WOPR: Protect Our Ancient Forests

Western Oregon Plan Revisions Bureau of Land Management

To whom it may concern:

I am writing in opposition to the BLM's attempt to put our
nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the
proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

Please do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forest
heritage to be our legacy, and rewrite the plan to protect our
ancient forests, clean water, and the wildlife that call these
areas home.

plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the
proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

Please do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forest
heritage to be our legacy, and rewrite the plan to protect our

this!

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the shameful days of rampant old growth
clear-cutting, destructive road building, and contrived
controversy, and would utterly fail to provide real stewardship
of these, our precious resources. I urge you to reject this and
every attempt to undermine science-based protections for our
nation's natural resources and treasured wildlands.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. ALL forestry in these areas,
besides tapering for the upkeep and sustainability of these
areas, should be ceased at once. It is clear that the proposal
fails to appreciate how important these intact forests are in
helping to slow global warming.

Please do whatever it takes to reverse these outrageous plans.
Do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forests. We want
the protection of ancient woodlands and conservation of heritage
to be our legacy, and to this end we demand that you rewrite the
plan to make it protect our ancient forests, clean water, and
the wildlife that call these areas home.

Western Oregon Plan Revisions Bureau of Land Management

To whom it may concern:

I am writing in opposition to the BLM's attempt to put our
nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the
proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

Please do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forest
heritage to be our legacy, and rewrite the plan to protect our
ancient forests, clean water, and the wildlife that call these
areas home.

Opposition to the WOPR: Protect Our Ancient Forests

To whom it may concern:

I am writing in opposition to the BLM's attempt to put our
nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Frankly I am shocked and appalled that such a plan could even be
under consideration in this day and age.

I believe the vast majority of American Citizens have been
perfectly clear that such practices are NOT ACCEPTABLE and that
the BLM as well as President Bush needs to remember that you
work for us.

Please show that you know that and don't misuse the power given
to you by the public.

People need to have a connection with the land. Complete
separaton from feelings for the earth creates people who do
nothing but despoil it, who take from it and give nothing back.
There is nothing uglier than a big clear cut. In states that
were once heavily forested we know first hand what happens after
clear cutting: it alters the climate, lets rain water rush down
the bare slopes to flood out homes and even whole towns. Let's
use a little common sense and save our trees instead of whacking
them down for short term profit.

Leave the old growth trees alone. You tried it with the Sequoias
in California. This has got to stop!! The lumber companies keep
pushing ang pushing to get into the old growth. These trees are
in remote areas that would require roads to be built for
pollution belching trucks. I hike in such areas and want the air
clean and the pristine areas quiet.

Opposition to the WOPR: Protect Our Ancient Forests

1/7/2008 19:20:49

Western Oregon Plan Revisions Bureau of Land Management

To whom it may concern:

I am writing in opposition to the BLM's attempt to put our
nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the
proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

Please do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forest
heritage to be our legacy, and rewrite the plan to protect our
ancient forests, clean water, and the wildlife that call these

To whom it may concern:

I hereby state that I disagree with the BLM's attempt to put our
country's beloved forests at risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). The misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. Please reject
such attempts to undermine science-based protections for our
nation's natural resources.

To whom it may concern:

I am writing in opposition to the BLM's attempt to put our
nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based

Opposition to the WOPR: Protect Our Ancient Forests

Western Oregon Plan Revisions Bureau of Land Management

To whom it may concern:

I am writing in opposition to the BLM's attempt to put our
nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.

Without the NWFP, we could see a return to logging of ancient
forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the
proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

Western Oregon Plan Revisions Bureau of Land Management

To whom it may concern:

I can't believe that our ancient forests are in jeopardy when
they are irreplaceable, and lumber is available from so many
other sources. PLEASE oppose the Western Oregon Plan Revisions
(WOPR), which would unravel the protections of the Northwest
Forest Plan (NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests,
diversity of life, and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.
My community and I don't want to see a return to the logging
ancient forests, and the degradation of hundreds of miles of
rivers and streams up and down the Pacific coast. I'm concerned
we'll go back to the old days of rampant old growth
clear-cutting, destructive road building, and local controversy.
PLEASE reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources! In addition to
so many other reasons for wanting to save them, these intact
forests are important in helping to slow global warming.
Please do all you can to protect our ancient forests, clean
water, and the wildlife that call these areas home. The whole

forests and the degradation of hundreds of miles of rivers and
streams up and down the Pacific coast. This proposal would take
us backwards to the days of rampant old growth clear-cutting,
destructive road building, and local controversy, and would fail
to provide real stewardship of these resources. I urge you to
reject this and every attempt to undermine science-based
protections for our nation's natural resources.

Clear-cutting over 100,000 acres of old-growth forest every
decade is simply an unsustainable rate of logging that would
destroy these ancient forests. I am also concerned that the
proposal fails to appreciate how important these intact forests
are in helping to slow global warming.

Please do not allow the destruction of our old-growth forest
heritage to be our legacy, and rewrite the plan to protect our
ancient forests, clean water, and the wildlife that call these
areas home.

Opposition to the WOPR: Protect Our Ancient Forests

To whom it may concern:

I am writing in opposition to the BLM's attempt to put our
nation's beloved forests at-risk through the proposed Western
Oregon Plan Revisions (WOPR). This misguided and unacceptable
plan would unravel the protections of the Northwest Forest Plan
(NWFP) and threaten the magnificent forests, diversity of life,
and clean salmon-rich waters of the region.
